Updates
The automatic updates of Panda Internet Security 2010 are carried out every
day. These updates involve the renewal of a le belonging to the program,
the Virus Signature File, which allows the program to recognize all known
viruses and threats and keep your computer protected against them.
Once the product has been activated, it will automatically update without you
having to do a thing.
Protection against known threats: viruses, Trojans, spyware...
Panda Internet Security 2010 detects and eliminates all types of known
malicious software that could reach or leave your computer through any
means (email, Internet downloads, le sharing, etc.).
Protection against unknown threats
Thanks to the innovative TruPrevent Technologies, Panda Internet Security
2010 detects and blocks suspicious threats whose features have not yet been
completely determined.
Firewall protection
The personal rewall blocks unauthorized access to your computer while you
are connected to the Internet or a local network. When a program on your
computer tries to access the Internet (or vice versa) without authorization,
Panda Internet Security 2010 will warn you about this and offer you the option
to allow or deny this action.
Identity protection
With Panda Internet Security 2010 you are protected against the most
common Internet fraud: redirecting of phone connections to premium-rate
numbers, unauthorized transmission of condential information, and access to
Web pages controlled by fraudsters.
OVERVIEW

Anti-spam lter
This keeps you protected from junk emails or spam, which normally contain
advertising.
Web content ltering
This allows the computer supervisor to prevent other computer users from
viewing inappropriate content (violence, pornography, etc.) on the Internet.
Protection against vulnerabilities
Protects you against security aws that could make your computer easy prey
to all types of malicious software and hackers. Now you can x vulnerabilities
detected in your computer, giving you even greater security.
Backup copies
Backup copies let you safeguard your les (documents, photos, video, music,
etc.) in the event of accidental loss. You can back up les easily on an external
drive, DVD or even online. This way, you can retrieve les when necessary.
